| Epithelial Specific Antigen (ESA, Epithelial Cellular Adhesion Molecule, Ep-CAM), EGP40) is expressed on the baso-lateral cell surface in most human simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas. It is of recent interest as a tumor marker. | | | Catalog # | E3414-12 | | Applications | Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Immunofluorescence, RIA and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications have not been tested. | | Recommended Dilution | Immunohistochemistry (formalin/paraffin): 1-2ug/ml for 30 min at RT. | | Note: Staining of formalin/paraffin tissues requires digestion of tissue sections with pepsin at 1mg/ml Tris-HCl, pH 2.0 for 15min. at RT or 10min. at 37°C. | | Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. | | Positive Control | Breast carcinoma. | | Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile 40-50% glycerol, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. | | CAS Number | n/a | | Clone Type | Monoclonal | | Isotype | IgG1 | | Clone No | 0.N.278 | | Host | Mouse | | Source | Human | | Concentration | ~0.2mg/ml | | Form | Supplied as a liquid in 10mM PBS, pH 7.4, 0.2% BSA, 0.09% sodium azide. Also available without BSA and azide. See E3414-12X. | | Purity | Purified by Protein G affinity chromatography. | | Immunogen | MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Cellular Localization: Cell membrane. | | Specificity | Recognizes human epithelial specific antigen (ESA) at 40kD. Species Crossreactivity: Does not react with rat. | | | Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
